I am Mvskoke (Eastern/Poarch Creek descendant), Creole, & Jewish. I am a PhD student in Geography at the University of Arizona and an Indigenous Data Sovereignty Doctoral Scholar with the Collaboratory for Indigenous Data Governance. In my work, I examine the role

Indigenous farmers and foresters play in the resurgence of biologically diverse and socially liberatory working lands. I have a background as a

seed keeper and conservation farmer, a cvpofv-vtotkv, and have collaborated with dozens of communities and seed repositories to return

Indigenous seeds to new generations of Indigenous farmers. My scholarship engages Indigenous methodology, conservation science, critical biogeography, counter-mapping, and agrarian studies.
